Shure hope she starts to eat soon...If I were doing what you are, I must confess I would follow a sligthly diferent aproach. The fact that you already have the adulthood enclosure ready is perfect, however I would start her in a big fish tank full of plants, you know more secretive so that she would feal more safe, I could keep a eye on her and make it easier to have access to her in order to feed without disturbing too much. But I gess it will work your way as well, some time simply has to pass.
i thought this as well...

as soon as the lights go off......... she starts roaming. lol.

need to set up a night vision webcam, one you can access from elsewhere in the house, to see what she does
 
You could always set up a red light in the tank on a switch, so that you can watch her after the lights go off, but still be able to turn it off when you're not watching her.

Swampy, that's disturbing.

And Snakeguy101, why am I not surprised?

The thread spans a year, but if you really look there's probably only about a months worth of actual build progress or worthwhile information, the rest is us ripping Lep for being so slow on updates, and then Lep and Snakeguys little affair...


;)
ha yes but thats still amazing that it stayed alive this long.
n i would def install some red night lights or very low blue moonlighting. she might enjoy that aswell.
 
i am considering it. She might be in the enclosure but it is far from done.....

Tryin some fish and a mouse soon... still hasnt touched the chicken gizzards. but still fast and alert. Oddly, she runs as mush as possible but if u pick her up she just relaxes :nilly:

That's because once you pick her up, she's plotting the most painful place to bite within reach...

We definitely need some video dude.
